Robin Hood Lala, I Think Not!!!

today Lala decided to be Robin Hood, her version of course is way different then the orginial.
as we all know, when you take something to school & you shouldn't {after many verbal warnings}it gets confiscated until the end of the school. so Miss Robin Hood & two of her other friends decided that instead of practicing for the Talent Show they would go help M find his ball. M convinced them that they can go back to class get the ball & that H can get her DS back as well. Lala {miss adventurous} decided that that was a great idea & that since school was almost over, they will return whatever they found in the crate back to its rightful owner.

however, tweedle dee, tweedle doo, & tweedle fool {Lala the fool}, should have realized that there was no way they would have gotten away with it. they start handing back things to the kids & of course the kids start thanking them & playing w/their returned items. when the teacher so that the kids were not paying attention, she went over to them to see what was going on. kids being kids, they told the teacher who gave them back their stuff & low & behold----I get a phone @ work from her teacher.

Lala is now on punishment, she will not allowed to attend the Afterschool Annual Party on Friday & I am pulling her out of the Talent Show. this is the price she has to pay for her actions, her teacher has asked them to write down what their consequence should be--she's thinking but her punishment as I said before is: she will not participate in the Talent Show, as well as no iPod, no tv, DS, PSP, no phone calls or use of the computer

A Wonderful Week



This week was spent just wonderful, my little brother & niece came for a visit (live in West Palm Beach). My niece just turned 2 on May 16th & boy is she something else, Lala had so much fun with her, she was bathing her, making sure she had milk or juice, feeding her & changing her diapers. The whole time she kept telling me how good she's doing taking care of her baby cousin, hint-she wants a brother/sister. She will have to wait like I told her, I just went back to school & it's kicking my ass.

I am only taking one class & the shit is crazy. I have 3 reports due: a management report, company report & a book report. On top of these reports, I have to read a book on management for my book report & the required Chapter reading for class. One chapter is anywhere from 36-50 pages long. So much information to learn & remember, the good thing is that the authors of the book have a website with tons of information from the book, especially the powerpoint presentations :-). the slides are the best for me & help with class & makes the reading more understandable as to what I really need to focus on for my midterm & class discussions.

Managing My Time

I am back but just don't know for how long. Things have been pretty crazy with so much going on...So in a HUGE nutshell here we go, mommy is finally better & her thearpy has ended, she almost as good as new it's just takes time, Lala turned 9 on the 21st & we have yet to celebrate due to her being on punishment & the crazy school schedule she has. This is the 2nd year that she will be performing for the school's end of the year Talent Show, swimming class, projects for club {creating their own magazine}, I got accepted to NYU & have classes once a week {Business Organization & Management} from 6:20-9:30pm, Vincent picks up Lala from school & tends to her every needs {Mr. Mom}, as well as keeping her busy while I do homework & study for 2-3 hours, work is good & things are slowing down in the office so that allows me time to read my chapters for class & work on my management report as well as my book report {Winning-Jack Welsh}, planning Lala's belated birthday party, she got accepted to a summer program & this weekend is her Assessment Exam--oh yeah, mommy & Lala will be here for the summer. Once summer school is over, she will then go to Florida w/mommy & then on to Worcester till Labor Day.

I am so tired that it's starting to show, haven't been sleeping much after the sudden death of my cousin & the unexpected death of my grandmother. Also having to deal with issues from all angles of friends & family. I am to the point where I am going to have the I don't care attitude cause all the BS is really bothersome. They want advice & when you give, they don't like the honesty or do the opposite & then get mad because you didn't stop them or change their minds
